I have come to the end of this journey. 

Shelly Dolan has taken no action that I can confirm after 11 months since I first contacted her. It took me writing to the board to get a response from her and then she failed to follow through on anything she said she would do. 

Rainbow health Australia refused to contact Shelley or send her an email in support of publically available gender affirming medical care. The following organisations also refused to support publically available gender affirming medical care:

LGBTIQ+ health Australia

Australian Medical Association AMA

Unting

Headspace

Orygen

Equality Australia

Transgender Australia

The Pride Centre

Australian Centre for sexual research and health

Latrobe university

Auspath. 

Australian Psychological Association

Australian Psychiatrist Association. 

ACCON

RACGP

The Royal Melbourne Hospital

 

If you are looking for the answer as to why Australia has no publically available gender affirming health policy then look no further than your local health. minister, the ceo of your local hospital and the organisations on this list.
